LM358 Operational Amplifier, Op-Amp Data

Key data for the LM358 general purpose operational amplifier, op-amp, including key electrical parameters, performance, features, pinout, package type and many other key datasheet details.

The LM358 and other chips in the series are single supply dual operational amplifiers which have become very popular.

the LM358 is a good general purpose op-amp, but it has the advantage of being designed to operate from a single supply and down to low supply voltages.

Explanation of operational amplifier parameters


Parameter Explanation
Max supply voltage

This is the maximum voltage that should be applied toth e operational amplifier. As many of them operate on dual supplies this may be given as ± representing the maximum for both the positive and negative supplies.

Power dissipation This is the maximum power dissipation permissable for the device.
Maximum differential input This is the maximum difference that may exist between the two inputs, -IN and +IN. It can normally be in either sense so it is stated as ± xxV.
Junction temperature TJ This is the maximum temperature that the actual IC chip can operate at, expressed in °C. Remember the ambient temperature will be much less than the actual silicon temperature.

  •   Further details

The LM358 utilises the circuit designs that were perfected for quad operational amplifiers.

The LM358 dual operational amplifier provides low power drain, a common mode input voltage range extending to ground/VEE, and both single supply or split supply operation.

The LM358 series is equivalent to one−half of an LM324, the quad op amp in a single package.

The LM358 has several distinct advantages over standard operational amplifier types in single supply applications. Notably the 358 can operate at supply voltages as low as 3.0 V or as high as 32 V, with quiescent currents about one−fifth of those associated with the MC1741 (on a per amplifier basis).

The common mode input range includes the negative supply, thereby eliminating the necessity for external biasing components in many applications.

The output voltage range also includes the negative power supply voltage.
